Places that you will visit:
CANINCUNCA, Located on an ancient Waricentre, next to the small lake of Urcos, Canincunca gets its name from the narrow pass located en route from Cusco to Puno.Construction of the chapel began at the beginning of the XVII century and consists of a single nave, with inner walls which are richly decorated with murals and gold leaf ribbons.
HUARO, It has a Renaissance style and retains more than beautiful 60 sculptures and 50 paintings of the Cusqueña School of Art, in addition to silverware, altarpieces and other movable goods. Built at the end of the XVI century and the beginning of the XVII century, the stunning murals of its interior cover the entirety of the ceiling and walls.
ANDAHUALLILAS, This majestic artistry is also reflected in the coffered ceiling of Mudejar influence, the mural paintings of Luis de Riaño, paintings of the Cusqueña School of Art, the polychromy of the ceilings and the triumphal arch that divides the presbytery and the main nave.Its baptistery retains the baptismal formula in Latin, Spanish, Quechua, Aymara and Puquina.
TIPÓN, located east of Cuzco, are Inca ruins which may have been a park for the upper class or an agricultural centrum. Even today water rushes through the channels, and the wide terraces are in perfect condition. Several surrounding ruins have been excavated, and many more are visible below the soil.
